i want to say something, jim. this man has been disparaging my plan with all this washington fuzzy math. i want you to hear a problem we've got here in the usa. if you're a single mother making $22,000 a year and you have two children, under this tax code, for every additional dollar you make, you pay a higher marginal rate on that dollar than someone making more than $200,000 a year, and that is not right. my plan drops the rate from 15% to 10% and increases the child credit from $500 to $1,000 to make the code more fair for everybody, not just a few, not just a handful. everybody who pays taxes ought to get some relief. >> having cleared that up, we're going to a new question. education. governor bush. both of you have promised dramatically to change -- to change dramatically public education in this country. of the public money spent on education, only 6% of that is federal money. you want to change 100% of the public education with 6% of the money, is that possible? >> we can make a huge difference by saying i
